Chapter Hosts Sold Out Small Business Event with DLA

The chapter hosted a sold out small business networking event with the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) in April. Amy Sajda, director, DLA Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP), shared how DLA partners with the small business community to provide best value integrated logistics solutions to the nation’s Armed Forces. Michael Yacobacci, contracting officer and program manager, DLA Contract Services Office, Philadelphia (DCSO-P), discussed the recently awarded DLA J-6 Enterprise Technology Services (JETS) indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) and answered questions from DLA JETS primes on the $6,014,804,859.39 ceiling, eight-year period of performance, multiple-award contract. The contract's broad scope makes it an ideal vehicle for DLA Information Operations (J-6) and other Defense Department customers who can leverage the vehicle with DLA approval. John Fafara, DCSO-P, chief, Contracting Division, discussed DLA’s plans to improve the user experience, adopt industry best practices and to provide one-stop shopping with FEDMALL, which will ultimately replace the Defense Department’s EMALL with dynamic pricing, market-driven competition and flexible contract arrangements.
